Raising Our Voices: Brooklyn — Love Poems to Brooklyn
Join us for an evening celebrating dance, poetry, creativity, and community as part of DanceStream Projects' Raising Our Voices project.
6:00–7:00 PM: Interactive dance & poetry activities
7:00–8:00 PM: Zine reveal, refreshments & celebration
Experience an interactive performance featuring New York Memory Center participants and DanceStream teaching artists, with special guest Mark Timmons. Together, we’ll explore how words can become movement—and how dance and poetry can create new ways of expressing stories, memories, and experiences.
The evening will culminate in the unveiling of zines created by people living with dementia across Brooklyn, offering a glimpse into the words, ideas, and creative voices that have shaped this project.
Come move, create, connect, and celebrate with us!
About the project:
Over the past several months, Raising Our Voices has brought DanceStream Projects' dance and brain health work into five communities of older adults and people living with dementia across Queens, Brooklyn, and the Bronx.
Working alongside Mark Timmons, a poet living with dementia and DanceStream's teaching artists, participants have been creating their own poems and translating their words, memories, ideas, and experiences into movement-based language.
The project explores what happens when dance and poetry become tools for expression, connection, creativity, and being heard.
Now, we're getting ready to celebrate—and share—what participants have created through a series of culminating events this December.
We'd love for you to join us in celebrating the voices, creativity, and movement that have emerged through Raising Our Voices.
This program is offered in partnership with the New York Memory Center. Contact New York Memory Center for more information. Contact 718-499-7701 x 312.

RAISING OUR VOICES PROJECT
COMMUNITY WORKSHOPS: DANCE & STORYTELLING
Join DanceStream Projects for this interactive dance and poetry workshop series championing the voices of people living with dementia in Brooklyn.
Each Stories in the Moment® class, we connect in dance, movement and storytelling.
You’re invited to join us in exploring the many ways we can tell our stories not only with our words but also with our movement.
All are welcome to participate! All skill levels welcome! No prior dance experience needed. Activities are offered seated and standing with guidance from two dance artists on modifications that suit your unique needs.

Stories in the Moment - Rehearsal (Online)

We invite you to join this special Stories in the Moment dance class and rehearsal!
Offered in collaboration with the DAA Literature and Art group and the Stories in the Moment dance and storytelling class, this rehearsal is a dedicated space to practice collaborative dance making. We will develop dance pieces over a period of time alongside dance and other artists as needed.
Classes begin with a brief seated and standing warm up offered by two dance artists from DanceStream Projects. After warm up, we will transition into activities to help us through this collaborative choreography process.
All are welcome to participate! All skill levels welcome! No prior dance experience needed.
This program is offered year round, once monthly. Additional classes will be posted on a rolling basis.
